Issa sent the subpoena anyway. Good.

[Former Proud Canadian]

So, if “...(she did)not committed any crime or (make) any misrepresentation...” why is she taking the fifth?

[tet68]

After she is sworn in she can plead the fifth all
she wants.

[rockinqsranch]

Yes, this is good.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Sick em, Issa!

[VRW Conspirator]

If she pleads the entire time...she needs to be fired. It is intolerable to have an unaccountable bureaucrat, particularly in the IRS.

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

Plead the Fifth? That’s not very ‘Girl Power’ish. 0bama will probably promote her in exchange for not talking. She can now join the ranks of Sarah Ingram, Susan Rice, and everyone else who succumbs to bribery.

[Uncle Miltie]

"issued a subpoena to Lerner anyway"

Ask direct, simple questions that would implicate her, 0bambi, Lew, the IRS generally, the Treasury Employees Union, etc.

Make her take the 5th repeatedly over simple questions that demonstrate her culpability. On tape.

[DannyTN]

They should hold her in contempt of congress if she refused to answer the question “Did Obama or the White House direct you to target conservative groups?”

[SeminoleCounty]

Still, if the House does not Impeach Obama, then they are culpable as well. No excuse not to Impeach....let the Senate refuse to vote for conviction...we will have them on record

[Travis McGee]

[tennmountainman]

I’m surprised Bonehead did not tell Issa to stop it.
Let her repeat the fifth until she loses her voice all while the camera’s roll.

[C210N]

Can one invoke the 5h only if one does not want to incriminate onself? Or, can one also invoke the 5th if one does not want to be Ft-Marcy-parked?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

They are covering for the Dear Leader.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Yeh, let her take the fifth on TV in front of everybody.

Taylor had written that "requiring her to appear at the hearing merely to assert her Fifth Amendment privilege would have no purpose other than to embarrass or burden her.

Tough luck. Make her publicly invoke the Fifth over and over and over again.

[kabar]

Interesting the WH and Treasury were working together on exactly how to reveal this scandal to the public-a month before Lerner’s phony planted question, which Miller claims was his idea.

[molson209]

She’s thinking , OMG why did we let monster of of the bag and on purpose

[Gay State Conservative]

A top IRS official taking the 5th in front of a Congressional panel? Boy,that's sure curious.

[Wordkraft]

Has she returned to the U.S.? She had gone to Canada late last week.
